New Orleans
In New Orleans there are 
Frenchmen everywhere
But your house could fall down, baby could drown

Frenchmen care
Everybody gather 'round
Loosen up your suspenders, hunker down on the ground
I'm a cracker, you are too
Don't take good care of you

Baton Rouge?
Who put up the hospital, built you schools?
Who looked after shit-kickers like you?
